Vinita Writes An Open Letter To PM Narendra Modi; Requests Him To Help Women Get Justice! #MeToo
Vinita Nanda is ready to battle it out with the actor Alok Nath. The producer-writer has written an open letter to PM Narendra Modi urging him to help women to get justice.
Vinita Nanda had shared a long and heart-wrenching Facebook post, in which she accused the television actor Alok Nath of raping her almost two decades ago. The industry and fans were shocked to know about the actor, who is known as 'Sanskari' involved in such a horrific act. But Alok Nath's lawyer had said that all claims were false. Also, recently, Alok's wife filed a defamation case against Vinita along with a compensation of 1 Rupee.
Now, Vinita has written an open letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi seeking his intervention in the matter! In a long Facebook post, the writer-producer has requested PM to help women get justice that they have been seeking for since a long time! Check out her post here!
Vinita Writes An Open Letter To PM Narendra Modi
Vinita wrote on her Facebook page, "Plea to the #PrimeMinisterOfIndia. Dear Narendra Modi ji. We pray in #Navratri to #Durga who was worshipped by #Ram before defeating the evil #Ravana. As the custodian of truth at this point in time, help us get justice, which a legal system we inhabit does not provide us with tools to avail?" - (sic)
We're living in times when our law shelters perpetrators and oppresses victims who're not equipped with the arms to fight, where humiliation defies & scores over empathy. We're living in an environment in which morality is defined by the rich and powerful."
“I Request You To Provide Us With The Space In Which We Will Be Heard”
"I request you to provide us with the space in which we will be heard. We never found courage to express ourselves until the #MeToo movement galvanised by honesty of a few, gave us confidence to speak & compelled our countrymen and women to listen to us.
I request you to show the world, that the change we seek to end the conspiracy of silence, the support we claim for securing ourselves against the consequences of voicing our anguish; will rise above being mere platitudes and become a true reality." - (sic)
“Prove Them Otherwise By Taking Action Sir”
"We're victims but are being victimised and humiliated because the men being questioned have the support of the practices and traditions of male dominance for thousands of years. They say this is no country for women. Prove them otherwise by taking action Sir.
There is a rising of global consciousness today and it supports women like us, but the long practises of curtailing women's rights are barriers to the progress that we are and have been seeking." - (sic)
Vinita Concludes…
"Your intervention in favour of us, women who have voices and those who have the support of all pillars of society except the system that governs us, will provide the confidence, which those of us who are underserved and remain marginalised, need desperately." - (sic)
